Chief Justice John Roberts has issued a remarkable statement in response to Trump’s call for impeachment of the judge who ruled against him in Alien Enemy Act case. This is about law, not politics.

The abandonment of Ukraine’s defense is in violation of the 1994 Budapest Memorandum-
An agreement and a promise from the United States established to defend Ukraine's territory.
In exchange, they relinquished their nuclear weapons.
Abandoning them is
abhorrent and in violation of the treaty.
